The Only Thunder



You're not the only thunder with something at stake!
We've our human thunder to make and then Love's say,
then Peace comes to clapping a Kind tambourine!

(Your thunder’s most profound this day.)

My echo’s the thing the wind strafes,
awoken from a deep sleep,
brought with a purposed glance,
a fox-trot, a samba, a focused tap,
thunder beneath and above,
a reckoning with Peace for Love,
a kindness rolling across the sky,
quavering my feet to howl,
to groove their step,
to move me forward
not back, but toward thunder's path,
the echo within has come at last.

May all the father's remember the children today,
may all the father's seek themselves in them,
recognize the offspring to God's wonder,
love and kindness abound, peace and marvel,
small limbs dancing to Life's tall thunder…

Peace & Love, Kindness for all

sdrawkcaB nruT (Turn Backwards)

I have been witness to the four pillars and see no reason to carry death there. Doesn’t the world know that life moves for more than just the sons of Abraham? O! I see the stunned throats floating by in the dusk to their stiff-limbed sleep as metal rains down over the Jordan’s western prophet, children dying there. I am here, waiting, breathing in the dusk under the shadow of the patriarch, asking, can we again build the shrine inside the soul and leave our flesh to time? © 2008 mrp/thepoetryman

SKYFALL

Skyfall... We continue to play along with an unnatural game that has serious consequences, soon we'll find ourselves enslaved without recourse to the system. (Is that true of local charades?) Yes. (Why can't we free ourselves from the system?) The madness of money. (It's not money, it's people, right?) It's both, money and us in tandem, thus assuring money's might and our adherance to its loudness. (Madness...) Indeed. © 2017 Mark Richard Prime

THE ROCK HOLDS

The rock holds the soil in and from the soil springs the tree, the green of LIFE rolling from the blue, rising to the occasion of itself. . “Be!”, the (H)eartH declares, “Be what you are!” . (We thought we were!) . (We think we are!) . “You are, but not freely, therefore, only a thought, and a thought without much thinking, as if you were scared into it.”, the (H)eartH added. . [a quietude begins, the truth being heard and heeded, grooving to the flow] ~ © 2017 Mark Richard Prime
